Yes: In a complex adaptive system, understanding the individual parts does not automatically convey a perfect understanding of the whole system's behavior. Complex adaptive systems, such as those found in Agile development environments, are characterized by intricate interdependencies and dynamic interactions among components. The behavior of the system as a whole emerges from these interactions, and cannot be fully predicted or understood solely by analyzing the individual parts. This is why Disciplined Agile encourages looking at the bigger picture and understanding how different elements influence each other within the larger organizational context.
